Contents
Patch order
Patching it is done on a per-component basis and in general, in this order:
Infiniband Switches
- Spine
- Leaf
Storage Server Software
- Cell nodes
- Database Minimal Pack in compute nodes
These patches are usually launched from compute node 1 using dcli and ssh to remotely patch each cell node.
Patches can be applied in a rolling fashion or standalone.
Rolling
./patchmgr -cells <cells group> -patch_check_prereq -rolling ./patchmgr -cells <cells group> -patch -rolling
Standalone
./patchmgr -cells <cells group> -patch_check_prereq ./patchmgr -cells <cells group> -patch
Check the log files:
- /var/log/cellos/validations.log
- /var/log/cellos/vldrun*.log
Database Bundle Patch
- Grid Home (if applicable)
- Oracle Home
CRS MLR patches
- Grid Home
- Oracle Home (if applicable)
